UArk Continuing Ed group at Lake Leatherwood

Monday May 5

A group of about eight folks from the University of Arkansas Continuing Education Program came to Lake Leatherwood for some birding. There were also two video guys who were producing a promotional video. They got some good looks at Pileated Woodpecker, Prairie Warbler, Red-winged Blackbirds, and numerous others. Best bird of the day was Mourning Warbler, but not everyone saw it since it was doing its typical skulking in the undergrowth behavior.

Here's a list of all the birds I saw that morning plus some species seen the next day by Jason Luscier , an herpetologist from the U as well.
